      The long blank screen is there only to fill up the rest of that particular videotape. The Act ends at 1:12 with the audience applause. This production was done in Hibbing, MN at the college where I was director of theatre. I used my students as well as community members in the cast.

    As a twelve year old, my dad took me to the 1963 World Series, game 4. With Koufax pitching, it was going to be a tough game for New York. But my hero was Mickey Mantle and I was yelling for him to hit a home run each time he came up. But sitting in the Dodgers side of the field, fans would turn around and yell at me to shut up and my dad thought we might get killed. But with the Dodgers safely ahead and Koufax pitching, we were safe for Mantle to hit one out and he did. Years later, I got to have lunch with my dad and Mantle in a little place in Oklahoma. I told him my story and we all laughed! Mickey would always be my hero in baseball but my dad will always be that for me!

    • @mikericci5786
      @mikericci5786 6 місяців тому

      None of the actors played the keyboard. A piano coach taught them the fingering necessary to look like they were playing, and I staged them so the audience never actually saw the keyboard. Incidentally, the keyboard was outfitted with a remote controlled speaker system that allowed the music to come directly from the keyboard.

    • @mikericci5786
      @mikericci5786 3 місяці тому

      None of the actors actually played the keyboard. There were speakers and a radio controlled receiver built into the keyboard -- all of the music was sent to the keyboard via the computer in the control booth. The actors worked with a piano teacher who taught them the correct fingering necessary for each piece of music. The script is unique, in that I merged three different versions into one. Act Two features Mozart dictating his Requiem to Salieri as he is dying, exactly as it was done in the film version. It was quite difficult to reproduce, but it worked amazingly well on stage.

    Didn't Mantle go to the Yankees spring training camp in March 1969 and decide after he got there that his body couldn't take any more? I know that he didn't announce his retirement until March 1969. I don't know if it was absolutely positively set in stone in that game against the Red Sox in September 1968 that Mantle wasn't coming back.
